As far as One Piece intros go, I have to say that Bon Voyage! has grown on me. To be honest, I didn't like it much at first, but watching the video over and over again changed my opinion of it. Most of the other One Piece openings showcased the Mugiwaras' fighting skills in one way or another, but this one didn't, which is why I didn't like it at first. Bon Voyage! doesn't need to show action scenes to be a good intro, though. It just positively drips with nakama-ness (I like the scene where the crew were all walking in a line), which really is the strength of One Piece. While other shounen anime groups are simply a team of individuals, the Strawhats are a team — or as one ED song says, they are a family. No other shounen anime group has a bond that strong, IMHO.

Also, the scenes showing each of the Strawhats' tragic and defining past gave me shivers. ^^
